Escape from New York


Actors:  Kurt Russell, Ernest Borgnine, Lee Van Cleef, Donald Pleasance, Isaac Hayes, Harry Dean Stanton, Adrienne Barbeau
Rating:  6 out of 10, great action that I adored when it first came out but unfortunately has not aged well.  I remembered it has having a great edge when it came out but somewhere along the way that was lost.  What remains is a cute but seriously flawed plot with incredibly dated special effects.
MVP: Russell as the great character Snake Pliskin, cool and lethal
